From 321fb561971ba0f10ce18c0f8a4b9fbfc7cef4b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2011 20:13:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ptrace: ptrace_check_attach() should not do s/STOPPED/TRACED/ After "ptrace: Clean transitions between TASK_STOPPED and TRACED" d79fdd6d96f46fabb779d86332e3677c6f5c2a4f, ptrace_check_attach() should never see a TASK_STOPPED tracee and s/STOPPED/TRACED/ is no longer legal. Add the warning. Note: ptrace_check_attach() can be greatly simplified, in particular it doesn't need tasklist. But I'd prefer another patch for that.
